Businesswomen, helping business women is the basis for a new group formed in April of this year (1993). Created to deal with the special needs of female entrepreneurs and corporate professionals alike the Morning Exchange caters to helping its members thrive in an ever complex world. Formed by two former members of the Alli Lassen Leads Club, the Morning Exchange brings a group of hardworking South Jersey women together every Tuesday at 6:50 a.m. at the Friends Meeting House in Haddonfield.

Sharing advice

They come to share advice on how to grow in their businesses, but more importantly they gather to improve their self-esteem and to learn more about themselves.

The Morning Exchange where lasting relationships were formed.

Involved in women’s networking since the early 70’s, co-founder Deborah Karper knew that there was a need for something more than exchanging business cards and getting business leads. “The Exchange allows us to have the business networking piece where we learn about each ther’s business. But it also brings us together to discuss the lighter side of working,” she explains. “We deal with everything from self-esteem to working in a male-dominated profession to tapping into your whole self.”

That was it. I didn’t have page 13 which continued the article. I am so happy to have revisited with the program Janet and I formed together. Right now I do not remember how long we met but it was a wonderful experience and I met many wonderful people.

The article also shows how I have been true to my path. I still believe networking should be more than exchanging business cards. We should take the time and build strong relationships.
